North Carroll students to present musical 'Carousel'

The North Carroll High School drama club will present Rodgers and Hammerstein's "Carousel" as its annual spring musical at 7 p.m. Thursday and 8 p.m. Friday and Saturday.

For $3 each, audience members will be treated to the touching story of "diamond-in-the-rough" Billy and his wife, Julie.

"It's a really heartbreaking story," said North Carroll's drama teacher and the play's director, Roberta Rooney. "It has beautiful music."

"It's a classic," said Becca Raub, who plays Julie. The 15-year-old freshman also had the lead in the school's last play. She portrayed Snow White in the winter production of "Snow White and the Dark Forest."
